Senior Research Fellow, Nelson Mandela University
I am a Senior Research Fellow associated with the African Centre for Coastal Palaeoscience (ACCP) at Nelson Mandela University in South Africa. I am a palaeoecologist, specifically a palynologist who runs the Palaeoecology Laboratory (“Palaeolab”) at the university’s Gqeberha campus (Eastern Cape). My research relates to reconstructing southern African palaeoenvironments, with a key focus on the vegetation history and past climate dynamics of the highly biodiverse Cape Floristic Region.
